Painting Our Family - an experiment with Sherlock Holmes end title style
When the first time I saw Sherlock Holmes end title, I was like "This is the one what I've been looking for!"
Well, I was looking for a style that combine live-action footage, painting & motion graphic & that end title inspires me.
So I decide to make a 'rip-off' style from it. I have no problem with the drawing itself, but the problem is in the ink-smearing motion effect.
Fortunately I found this website with tutorial & material about the same style, Jake & Dan. So I grab the paper texture file, the smearing ink blot etc from them.
Next step, I pick some of video footages from our Canon EOS 500D. Then in Corel Painter X, I draw the outline & put some hatches in different layers. I keep the original image from the video footage for color effect, later in After Effects.


Then in AfterEffects, using the smearing-ink material from -- as Luma Matte for each layer of my drawings & apply BCC Watercolor in the original image.


In the final composition, all the layers are in 3D mode because I want to add depth (3D environment) & put a camera with slow track movement.




I pick a beautiful music from http://opsound.org The Blossoming Lilies by The Orchestral Movement of 1932 as the soul of the motion.
So here it is. Enjoy

SEVEN Day 5: Habib, Si Irani Gila

Perkenalkan, ini supir taxi gelap langganan kami bernama Habib berkebangsaan Iran. Sama sekali ngga bisa bahasa Inggris, tapi kelakuannya rusuh & suka iseng. Berumur paruh baya mengaku punya istri 5 di Teheran, Iran :D

Becandanya suka rasis. Sambil nyetir, sering nunjuk-nunjuk ke orang di pinggir jalan "Bengali!" atau "Musr (Mesir)!" atau "Kuwaiti!"
Yang sering jadi korban orang Bengali (Bangladesh). Setiap menemukan mereka entah sedang berjalan atau ambil air, Habib melambatkan mobilnya dan berteriak-teriak seperti mengomel kepada mereka kemudian kabur sambil ketawa-ketawa meninggalkan korbannya terbingung-bingung.

Suatu ketika, Habib dan kami memergoki teman sekantor kami (Yoswar & Eman - ex RCTI juga) sedang berjalan di parkiran bank. Isengnya kumat, Habib menginjak gas dan bersiap menabrak Yoswar & Eman. Kontan saja mereka berdua kaget setengah mati melompat ke trotoar menyelamatkan diri. Habib pun ngakak dari balik kemudinya.

Hari ini, korbannya seorang bapak-bapak sedang tenang & damai bersepeda di pinggir jalan. Habib menempelkan mobilnya tepat di samping pengendara sepeda, menggebrak pintu & berteriak keras dalam bahasa arab. Langsung kabur, Habib tertawa terkekeh, merasa puas membuat si pengendara sepeda nyaris jatuh. "Hada Irani (Itu orang Iran)" katanya. Buset. Orang sebangsanya juga jadi korban. Dasar Irani gila.

SEVEN Day 4: Indonesian Mango

Pagi ini kami mampir ke Sultan supermarket. Yang menarik, kini tersedia mangga Indonesia. Cuma harganya yang luar biasa, sekilo dijual Rp 70.000 saja! Kebayang kalau di kampung tinggal manjat pohon dan metik sendiri. Pengen sih beli, cuma ngga rela sama harganya. Sementara Leia yang duduk di trolley sudah teriak-teriak pengen mangga-nya. Neo yang duduk di sebelah Leia juga ikut excited. Nanti pas mudik saja ya nak, kita pesta mangga! *balada perantau*

SEVEN Day 3: Arwen's 30 minutes
Ini adalah sepenggal kisah Arwen saat menjelang berangkat sekolah.

Membangunkan Arwen seperti membangunkan kerbau yang sudah seminggu ngga tidur karena ada lemburan. Susahnya minta ampun. Kadang berhasil bangun tapi sambil marah-marah :D

Berhubung Arwen sudah mandi malam sebelumnya, bangun pagi tinggal sikat gigi & cuci muka. Sambil merem tentunya

Sarapan juga setengah ngantuk. Sering ngga habis, karena memang ngga lapar XD

Tepat jam 6:19, Arwen sudah di lobi apartemen menunggu bisa sekolah datang. 6:20, bis sekolah datang. Tepat 30 menit!

SEVEN Day 2: Ngos-ngosan di Taman India

Hari ini Papin kembali berolah raga lari di Taman India dekat rumah. Disebut Taman India karena banyak orang India & ibu-ibu India lengkap dengan selendang sari mereka berolah raga di sini.
Kebetulan Papin terlalu bersemangat buat lari ngebut pagi ini, berusaha menyalib ibu-ibu berselendang sari. Akibatnya, belum 1 km sudah ngga kuat, berhenti sambil ngos-ngosan, dilirik ibu-ibu berselendang sari yang tadi Papin salib
